I hate to be a cynic here, but why do I have to call my legislators - at all. Don’t Republicans control both chambers of Congress? Isn’t there a big bipartisan majority of NRA supporters?
*sigh* Rhetorical questions all, but it is unfortunate that this doesn’t automatically go into the legislative dumper with Congress openly slapping down Holder and Obama without any prompting. I can dream can’t I?
I’m done calling them. I called for years but finally realized what a wasted effort it is. They don’t care what I think.
Simple: so they'll know.
Not everyone is fortunate enough to live in a state where the Congresscritters have been educated (read, "beat over the head") to know that the Second Amendment is sacred.
Maine, for example, is represented by at least one senator who is most charitably called a RINO, and would otherwise vote with her liberal Dimocrat pals on an issue like this.
If you don't tell them, how do they know?
And trust me, a phone call is worth a hundred emails...
Yeah, what happened to the big Republican wins??
